80s! I have yet to miss a question and break the tie breaker as I always write the artist down along with the song.

We sailed on the Freedom summer 2013. There is a special entrance door for FTTF, priority, platinum, things like that. Shouldn't be hard to miss. It was our first time at that port and found it quick.

We cruised on the Freedom and loved it, it is our fav cruise by far. Sorry you couldn't find something to be happy with. We are non-smokers and the smoke didn't bother us, not even on our balcony. And please show me a ship that the pizza line is not long?!?!?!?!?! There isn't one!
Maybe like others said you should try a different cruise line. Freedom is a great ship!

We did the Orlando to Ft Lauderdale route last summer. Our cruise debarked on a Sunday and we left Orlando around 8 am. We got to Port Everglades around 11:15 amish. I have a pretty heavy foot as well. We got on the FL Turnpike close to our hotel, which was just off I-4. There are tolls.

I just got off the Liberty on 08/30 as well. I had an aft port cabin on deck 7. It only vibrated badly when we docked, due to the thrusters. We didn't have any other issues, and I was not aft, aft, I was side aft.

We did snorkeling in St Thomas two weeks ago, neither one of these excursions, but wanted to give a heads up, the water, I am told, is very choppy going to the snorkel site, it def was the day we went. I would go on the biggest boat possible going out to the sites. My fam was sick and my kids didn't get in, one threw up, so on and so forth.

We just got off the Liberty a week ago. It was our second cruise with it. We got FTTF for our upcoming cruise as well. We didn't have any line at all at PC and were onboard and in our cabins within 10 minutes of us arriving at port, which was 10:45 am. When we got back to PC, we waited for approx 10 minutes and were off the ship by 7:45 am. It was great and we love it.

Yes, we sailed on the Fascination in November 2012, it was cold at night, there was a freak cold snap and it was only in the 60s in the Bahamas. Our day at HMC was nice and warm, but that was about it.
-
Yes! We love the card. We love the double points. This past cruise last week, we had earned $200 OBC which our youngest used in the arcade. Free money.
-
Our sons also get their own cabins. We have gotten FTTF for both cabins now for 3 cruises. I guess we could put the luggage tags on there, but I like their cabin is ready when ours is and I can do everything all at once.

Hello,
Does anyone know how much the horse drawn carriage is? It will be my fam of 4. And do you know if they accept cc cards-like matercard, or does it have to be cash?
TIA!

When you book, your child already will have his or her own VIFP. Our two sons have them and we began crusing when they were 9 & 12, we are about to go on our 5th and they have the same amount of days as we do.

What was the name of the beach in Grand Turk? Would like to try snorkelling there!
There is the beach as soon as you walk off the ship, its free.

I am very happy with the no more smoking on the balconies! I can enjoy myself now and don't have to worry about the smoke!
I do not care either way about the staff getting raises, DH handles all of that. They do work hard so I am cool with it.

We sailed on the Freedom last August with our two DSs (16 & 14). They both loved the ship and were never bored. The Freedom does not have the ropes course or a newer slide, but our sons had a great time. They both made friends (our oldest made one before we boarded because of the roll call) and they still keep in touch with these friends. They both loved their clubs, one in Circle C, the other in Club O2. Both talk about the cruise a lot, actually all of them. I think either ship would be cool for them if you sail when there will be other kids around.
Just a side note: We sailed on the much smaller Fascination in Nov 2012, kids even had a blast on that one and there were plenty of teens even during the school year. They still had lots of things to occupy them.
Happy sailing!

Finally moving

Seems like I read a lot of my child got sick. Could be there was already a sick child on board and it went from child to child to adult, as it usually does in most cases. We were on the Freedom last year and just like all other CCL cruises, there is an ample amount of tissues for the doors and hand sanitizer.
-
We didn't care for the Fascination. It was trying to exit the ship which was the worst. Debarkation was awful. Of course, now they have FTTF, so we may be willing to book another cruise on it. We really like the bigger ships though. Plus the cabins are small--at least the balcony was.
-
We sailed in Nov and I was worried about the same thing for our teens, especially since one was Club O2 and the other in Circle C, however, there was plenty of teens, not as many as the summer, but the smaller group made for fast friends and our boys still talk to some of them from Nov 2012. And I did the same thing as you, posted and asked about how many teens in Nov. I was honestly pleasantly surprised!

We always book with our kids across the hall from us, however, a family we know was on a cruise with us one time-just by chance, we didn't plan it. I was talking to them and they had booked the mom and 2 kids in one and the dad and the other kid in another, but once they were onboard, they just went and changed it so the kids were together and they were together. Should be no problem. At the time of that cruise, our kids were all the same age-14 and 12
-
Is it a free cruise like the other post?
No this is a cruise we booked last year when we were on the Freedom. We were not one of the lucky ones to get a free cruise. :(

Our son turned 16 while on the Fascination. Prior to us boarding, I had ordered a bday cake for him with the instructions for it to be delivered during dinner. When we got to the MDR, I told the matre d about the cake and when it came time for dessert, they made a little hat out of a napkin, put it on him and sang happy birthday. I did not decorate his cabin or anything as he told me in advance he would tear anything down, but the steward came told him happy birthday.

Sorry to ask another question, but we are taking an 8 day in August, we will turn to gold on our last day at sea--we would still be gold for the entire cruise? I called Carnival and like the other response said, it said we would be red until our next cruise. I didn't know if it was because we turn gold on the last day. Thanks.

I really like the commercial, it makes me think of my boys and how close they bond with other kids almost instantly and althoguh not allowed, I could see that as being something they would do. So adorbs!

We were aft deck 7-Empress Deck-loved it. I love the aft cabins.
